MLM Bot Watch 42

This is the 42nd thread in a long series about the dangers of network marketing/ MLMs such as Forever Living, Ariix, NuSkin, Arbonne, Younique, TS Life, and MANY MANY more!
Posts here will give examples of the lies told by 'top bots' who portray luxury lifestyles in order to lure in new victims and of the other techniques and brainwashing used by MLMs
Over 90% of people who join an MLM end up LOSING money. Always bear that in mind when considering paying money to join!

So Roomie is in hospital having tests due to some heart irregularity.

An interesting comment from one of her friends was "Did you fess up to those bloody tablets you’ve been throwing down your neck? Chinese medicines - dodgy as!"

I wondered whether the friend was referring to all those FL supplements and tablets she takes daily (it was only earlier this week she put a photo on fb of 7 different ones that she takes) or whether she's also been taking Chinese medicines on top of all that. If so, why?

Spongebobette · 19/09/2018 18:04

hmm that observation seems to have been deleted...

I find it amazing that someone who is in hospital and says she'll be 'off the radar' then proceeds to post, including selfies. Some people have no boundaries.

It's still there Spongebobette (on the post about not knocking the NHS)

user1484830599 · 19/09/2018 19:40

GOD only a FL bot could take a serious hospital trip and turn it into 5 different posts. I bet we'll have at least three more tonight and then a few more over the next few days praising our amazing NHS.

user1484830599 · 19/09/2018 19:45

Yawn really loves herself. So, so vain!

Poor Mrs stickman and her real job. I wonder if the FL bubble may be starting to burst?

PoohBear219 · 19/09/2018 22:03

Perhaps I'm not very financially savvy but looking at a family of 3 …

So in 2017 'earnings' of 6 figures so at least £100K plus a bonus of $400K - that's enough to finance a pretty fabulous lifestyle.

Surely there would be no need for £300K director's loan from their business as they've 'earned' enough.

Unless, of course, the 'earnings' were not earnings but merely top line numbers before costs and expenses (and the cost of sales was onerous).

cozietoesie · 19/09/2018 22:19

One would have thought that there would be no need, indeed! Smile

Teddy1970 · 20/09/2018 07:49

Jonsey...I think Castle paid somewhere between £700-750k for it so there's still a hefty mortgage on it.

SSDGM · 20/09/2018 08:49

Found a TSLife Manhun who is apparently already a “director” and wiping his bum in tenners while his ambition is to “help you earn £500 a month with TSLife”.
He’s been paid twice already since he started. So that’s nice.

Whiterangey · 20/09/2018 10:22

Yawn's husband is a dick. Telling Yawn that she now looks fantastic and slim. Seriously? That is telling her that she didn't look fantastic before weight loss.

No wonder she has spent at least the last 8 years of her life yo-yo dieting.

Norma27 · 20/09/2018 10:36

If someone gave me a bizniz card with ‘mum, wife, World traveller’ on it, and some weird quote, I think I would laugh in their face!

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 20/09/2018 12:48

WTF.

Would you take health, fitness and wellbeing advice from someone who, rather than see a GP and take NHS prescribed meds, self diagnoses and orders dodgy meds from a foreign website? Someone who thinks it's funny to walk out of a ward where they're supposed to be overnight, not informing anyone but just disappearing?

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 20/09/2018 13:17

Poor Yawn.
Her husband saying that would be as if she told him he was looking a bit less like a cerebrally-challenged serial killer, if he did look like a cerebrally-challenged serial killer, which of course I'm not saying he does for a second.

Jonsey32 · 20/09/2018 13:22

How incredibly irresponsible of her.
She didn’t have to do some ridiculous great escape act, she simply could have told them she as self discharging. She has capacity to make the descision.
Instead she does a moonlight flit without telling anyone - time and resources may well have gone into looking for her.
Disgusting behaviour. Then all the limpets telling her how funny she is.
Wow. Just wow.

Jonsey32 · 20/09/2018 13:27

And she didn’t free up a bed for a more worthy patient- the system would still have had that bed allocated to her so she has actually prevented someone from having a bed that may have needed it. Fuming.

FL UK is running a #showusyourpeaches promo aimed at families to promote the new peach flavour drinking gel. I downloaded the product PDF to have a look at the ingredients & serving suggestions:

You get 4 servings per carton (which costs about £22)

Each serving amounts to 24% of an adults daily recommended intake of sugar

If you are a family of four, drinking your aloe daily will cost you £154 a week or £616 a month. It may also give you diabetes or heart disease, by the look of the ingredients.

user1484830599 · 20/09/2018 14:33

Do people actually buy it? I mean more than once, to shut the bot up.

Yawns husband just looks smarmy all the time. Is he part of her business, or just a character she wheels out when she's running a bit low on post ideas?

ArbunneHun · 20/09/2018 14:55

How much discount do FL bots get? Even if it’s 50%, that’s over £300 a month on drinking gel. No wonder they are all pushed to be “a product of the product” and their “own best customer”.

It’s daylight bloody robbery for glorified Sunny Delight!

Norma27 · 20/09/2018 16:09

That is insane.
And Uber should be bloody ashamed trying to shove it down her baby’s throat at every opportunity.

Spongebobette · 20/09/2018 16:37

HOW MUCH?????

I hope that Roomie feels really poorly again and has to go back to that hospital and is made to explain herself
What a stupid selfish woman

So my FaceBook feed has suddenly started with two of my friends selling and talking about Isagenix, looks the normal shit, but the packs look stupidly expensive and make FL look cheap for their bottles of Aloe Gloop crap peach shite.

Anyone had any experience with them, as I want to wave a few things under their nose about this shit they are peddling.

Norma27 · 20/09/2018 18:55

Who wants a first hand ‘sippet’ of roomie’s book?
I hope to god she hired an editor and had it proof read!

dadandmum · 20/09/2018 18:59

@Norma27 - Oh I could do with a laugh today.
